Coppin State!

[USCEE82]

Playing the Gamecocks women tonight. A name that will live in Gamecocks men's basketball history forever. 1997 NCAA tournament. Fifteen seed Coppin State took down number 2 seed USC.

I remember well. Sigh.

I remember well. Sigh.

Me too.

 

[Lone Star Rooster]

I'll never forget it. They didn't just beat us on a buzzer-beater, they dominated us, especially in the 2nd half. And as I recall, they gave Texas all they could handle in the 2nd round.

That game left scars that didn't heal until the Final Four run 20 years later.

 

[Beanerball]

That was a painful thing to watch. Then lost again the next year in the 1st round.
